ABSTRACT

The research entitled, ―A SOCIOLINGUISTIC STUDY OF DOCTOR-PATIENT INTERACTION: A CASE STUDY OF ABUTH, SHIKAâ€" explores the Sociolinguistics factors that constitute barriers in the communication between doctor and patients in the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH) Shika. It shows how factors such as language, sex, gender, religion and the register of medical practice affects diagnosis, recommendations and the rendering of care. Because of the location of the area of study, and the seeming language diversity of both the workforce and patients in ABUTH, the problem of effective communication arise. ABUTH is located in a predominant Hausa community in Shika yet English language or un-standardized version of Hausa is mostly used for diagnosis. This problem is made worse by the use of Medical language in the encounter that takes place between doctors-patients. This study, using Frankel‘s Functional Model of Communication, a theory under the tenet of Clinical Research, shows how the social relationships or power structure between doctor and patients affects the administering of care in medical encounter. The data were collected using covert observation and interview. The conversations between doctors and patients are tagged in interlocutions and each interlocution is analyzed along with the different social factors which affect doctor-patient conversation. The study finds out that the deployment of the language of medicine in the medical encounter between doctors and patients in ABUTH Shika affect diagnosis and the administering of care as doctors interrupt conversations with patients the assumption that the trajectory of patients‘ conversation.
